Dog Pet Friendly Hikes, Walks and Parks

Many Salt Spring Island hikes and walking nature trails are pet friendly. We also have a dog park for socializing and training. Some hikes are on leash, some off leash and some don't allow any dogs at all, so do take note of our legend below. We are a farming community so having control over your pets at all times is very important. Farmers can and will shoot dogs who come onto their property and threaten their livestock. Responsible pet owners learn how to work with their dogs to achieve reliable immediate recall and they leash their pets in uncertain areas and situations. See our Services page for Trainers who can help you.

It is best if your dog is always within your direct eyesight, so you can call the little rascal back if he's getting too far ahead or off the beaten track! Always bring a leash and please clean up after your dogs – bury poop or have poop bags that you carry out. Please do not let your dog run off the trail, chase wildlife or dig. Chasing or harassing wildlife is prohibited under the CRD Parks ByLaw and BC Wildlife Act. We are so very grateful for the care you have taken with your pets in our parks, reserves and on our hiking trails. Check out the Salt Spring Adventure map for dog friendly spots.

In some of the pictures we have taken of these trails you will see our two little rascals Frida and Diego. They are English Cocker Spaniels. Diego is the white and orange roan (from Denman island) and Frida is the black working strain cocker spaniel bred right here on Salt Spring. The dogs you see to the left are our past Springer Spaniels Banjo (right) and his mom Kali (left).

Hiking Guide

Thanks so much for respecting our community and we hope you enjoy our trails!

Andreas Vogt Nature Reserve – South Central

Access: Off Sarah Way - Bryant Hill Park parking lot - just inside the path for Bryant Hill Park you’ll see a sweet little humming bird sign with arrow indicating this trailhead for the reserve. As you walk in you will come to little bridge over a flowing stream. In our wet season it really flows and sometimes over the trail to the reserve. There is a sign here indicating to the left is the reserve and to the right is Bryant Hill trail. This is a nature reserve so it is very important dogs are on lead so they don’t disturb the wildlife and the sensitive eco system our Salt Spring Conservancy is trying to protect. It is a privilege to still have dog access to the nature reserves.

Details: The hike is 1.42 km with great high level views both South and West. You will see lovely Garry the unusual Gold leaved Desert parsley and Yellow Wood Violet along this trail. This property was known as “Bryant’s Mountain” and later as “Goat Hill”. It belonged to Colonel Jasper Bryant.

Bulman Trail - South East

Access: A connector trail between Bulman Road and Meyer Road. Bulman Road access is across from 211 Bulman Road. Meyer Road access is across from 191 and 201 Meyer Road. Dogs can be off leash but need to be under owners control at all times.

Details: This short 200 meter moderate trail connects between the two roads. It could be the beginning of a hike down to the beach if you connect to the Meyer Road access for the Chris Hatfield Trail. We recommend dogs go on leash while walking down the country roads and definately while on the Chris Hatfield trail as islanders have created this trail to be an incredible rock sculpture garden with fairy doors, which could easily be disturbed by dogs.

Burgoyne Bay Provincial Park Trails – South West

Access: Burgoyne Road off Fulford-Ganges Road in the Fulford Valley just after the Salt Spring and Garry Oaks Wineries leads into the Park and to the head of a variety of trails.

One - As you head along the bumpy, sometimes muddy, sometimes icy road to your left is an entrance into the fields – taking the trails through the field can connect you up to the trails that take you down to the shoreline of the bay. This is an unofficial trail entrance and the fields are full of spear grass, which when dried out (mid Summer to October) can be very dangerous to dog's ears and expensive to get out if you have to take them to the vet!

Two - About half way down the road is a trail on the left side. A very pretty trail – easy to walk wide pathway with trees and bushes reaching overhead towards each other. This trail will also take you down to the bay. Parking is limited on the side of the road.

Three - At the end of Burgoyne Bay there are trails accessible from the first parking lot that lead down to the shoreline and dock, along the ridge and further into the woods. If you take the parking lot down to the right there is a lovely trail accessible straight ahead that runs along the ridge and ends at the shoreline with an outcrop of rocks. There are nice sitting areas on the rocks, on the grass or under the trees for a picnic. Dogs must be leashed in the park.

Details: The Park is a heritage home site with fabulous old buildings on the road through the park. It is home to many birds including Eagles which you can often see perched in the trees overseeing the bay. The paths are lush with a large variety of trees and large mossy rock formations. Gorgeous views out over the ocean to Vancouver Island from the bay shoreline access points. Left of the dock when the tide is out are mud flats with all kinds of tidal pools full of life. There are caves, if you know where to look.

There are nice sitting areas on the rocks, on the grass or under the trees for a picnic. Dogs must be leashed in the park.

Details: The Park is a heritage home site with fabulous old buildings on the road through the park. It is home to many birds including Eagles which you can often see perched in the trees overseeing the bay. The paths are lush with a large variety of trees and large mossy rock formations. Gorgeous views out over the ocean to Vancouver Island from the bay shoreline access points. Left of the dock when the tide is out are mud flats with all kinds of tidal pools full of life. There are caves, if you know where to look.

Burgoyne Bay Provincial Park Trails – South West

Access: Burgoyne Road off Fulford-Ganges Road in the Fulford Valley just after the Salt Spring and Garry Oaks Wineries leads into the Park and to the head of a variety of trails.

One - As you head along the bumpy, sometimes muddy, sometimes icy road to your left is an entrance into the fields – taking the trails through the field can connect you up to the trails that take you down to the shoreline of the bay. This is an unofficial trail entrance and the fields are full of spear grass, which when dried out (mid Summer to October) can be very dangerous to dog's ears and expensive to get out if you have to take them to the vet!

Two - About half way down the road is a trail on the left side. A very pretty trail – easy to walk wide pathway with trees and bushes reaching overhead towards each other. This trail will also take you down to the bay. Parking is limited on the side of the road.

Duck Creek - North West – Vesuvius area

Access: There are two access points: Across from 209 Sunset Drive and Between 158 and 160 Broadwell Road. Dogs can run off leash if well controlled by owners. It is a spectacular dog walking property – true Dog heaven, especially on hot summer days as there is a creek running along the trails where dogs can splash about, cool off and grab a drink!

Details: The 2 km plus, hike is easy and fairly level with some stairs and a boardwalk along a well marked trail. It's a fantastic 45 minute field and stream hike with a cool, tree shaded walk along the creek and open meadow. Dogs can get spear grass in their ears in the Fall when running through the fields.

Hedgers Turn Hike – North East

Access: Off Le Page Road just before Bon Acres Farm you will see a sign and turn in for this hike. Dogs should really be on leash as there are farm animals at Bon Acre farm.

Details: A short ways down the trail you will hit a fork in the road.

To the Left will take you to Whims Road. When you come out at Whims road you will be on a private driveway. Owners of this property do not want people and dogs wandering through their property to find Isabella Point Road Beach, so best to end your walk here or walk back on the trail to Bon Acres.

Jack Foster East - at Northend Farm -North East

Access: Oddly enough access to this hike to a beach area is down the driveway of Northend Farm off Northend Road and across from Northview Place. A few meters down the driveway of the farm you will see the entrance. The farm owners are very pleasant, but understandably, they don't want you parking on their driveway and blocking access to their farm stand. So it is important to park across the road on Northview Place.

Details: We do not recommend this trail for dogs. The trail is along side of a Sheep Farm and dogs MUST be leashed. This farmer has lost sheep to dogs and can shoot if your dog starts to chase their sheep. Quite frankly the hike is not worth the risk, but if you do decide to hike it, keep your dog on leash. Hike is about 10 minutes one way. These are the reasons we don't recommend this trail for dog walkers/hikers:

Number one - it is along the fence line of the farm and if their dogs spot you, they bark at you all along the trail and back. It is most unpleasant, especially if your dogs start to respond.

Number two - you need to keep your dog leashed the whole hike as you are so close to the the farm livestock that the possibility for conflict is very great.Number three - it is not a pleasant walk nor hike down onto the beach. The walk is along the fence line is covered in salal and you are climbing across slippery, big tree roots at some points. And the access to the beach is down a cliff with little support and a make shift hand rail that is dangerous. The ocean thunders in at times across slippery rocks making it easy for dogs to slip and fall in. The access down to the beach is even difficult for dogs to negotiate. We recommend the Jack Foster West trail up the road as it is way nicer for human and dog! Do not mistake the farm entrance North up the road past their driveway as a trail entrance!

And the access to the beach is down a cliff with little support and a make shift hand rail that is dangerous. The ocean thunders in at times across slippery rocks making it easy for dogs to slip and fall in. The access down to the beach is even difficult for dogs to negotiate. We recommend the Jack Foster West trail up the road as it is way nicer for human and dog! Do not mistake the farm entrance North up the road past their driveway as a trail entrance!

Jack Foster East - at Northend Farm -North East

Access: Oddly enough access to this hike to a beach area is down the driveway of Northend Farm off Northend Road and across from Northview Place. A few meters down the driveway of the farm you will see the entrance. The farm owners are very pleasant, but understandably, they don't want you parking on their driveway and blocking access to their farm stand. So it is important to park across the road on Northview Place.

Details: We do not recommend this trail for dogs. The trail is along side of a Sheep Farm and dogs MUST be leashed. This farmer has lost sheep to dogs and can shoot if your dog starts to chase their sheep. Quite frankly the hike is not worth the risk, but if you do decide to hike it, keep your dog on leash. Hike is about 10 minutes one way. These are the reasons we don't recommend this trail for dog walkers/hikers:

Number one - it is along the fence line of the farm and if their dogs spot you, they bark at you all along the trail and back. It is most unpleasant, especially if your dogs start to respond.

Number two - you need to keep your dog leashed the whole hike as you are so close to the the farm livestock that the possibility for conflict is very great.Number three - it is not a pleasant walk nor hike down onto the beach.

Jack Foster West – at Southey Point - North East

Access: On Southey Point Road – just a short distance down on the right you will see the entrance to this wonderful hike down to the beach. Dogs should be leashed initially as parking is across the road. However, once you get going, if you have good reliable recall with your dog, then an off leash hike should be fine.

Details: A 4 km circle route. A very pleasant walk through a forest of fir, cedar and arbutus. The trail down to the beach is easy, wide enough for dogs and humans and it meanders through a beautiful forest. The descent to the beach is down a very sturdy set of stairs, easy for both humans and dogs to negotiate. Once down on the beach you can head North (at low tide only) toward a break water. Just before the breakwater is another trail that will take you back to North end road. You come out across the road from the first access point for Jack Foster Trail West. Hiking time is little over an hour.

Long Harbour Ferry Terminal Trail – North East

Access: This trail is accessed through the parking lot at the Long Harbour Ferry terminal. You can park in the diagonal parking just before the parking area or in the parking area itself. Across from the Ferry Terminal (heading away from the water) you will see an entrance to a wooded area. Doggie poop bags are provided. Straight ahead is pathway that inclines and to the right is a pathway that heads toward picnic tables. This trail ends in about 2-5 minutes at an old large cement cylinder. The trail heading straight up the hill offers a wonderful moderate hike upward.

Details: All of the Ferry Terminals on Salt Spring have somewhere to exercise Fido. Fulford Ferry terminal has very little to offer -basically the dock area or a congested village with cars, people, etc all on the move. Vesuvius has a little pathway off the Northern corner of the ferry staging area – near the parking area. However, Long Harbour has this fabulous hike that takes you all the way up to Little Mountain Road. You could create a loop walk down to Ontario Place Beach or Beachside Beach access (see our Beaches page for more information) and back via this trail. Initially part of this trail has asphalt, so it can be slippery when wet. The rest of the trail is wide and then it narrows. There are a number of really narrow deer pathways as well so keep to the pathway that climbs upward.

You can access the main entrance by heading for Art Spring on Jackson Road (Embe Bakery is the land mark off Fulford-Ganges Road) Take Seaview Drive – a small road to the left of Art Spring (looking at Art Spring's main entrance). There is a large parking area straight ahead. Pets should be under your control at all times. Do be watchful of moving and parking cars in the parking lot.

A secondary access area is off the busy Rainbow road so we don't recommend it for pet owners. It is in the 200 block of Rainbow road near the North End of our community swimming pool.

Details: A number of easy trails make up this network, making it possible to choose short or long excursions. The full trail circuit is over 8 km long. Along the trail there are recreational activities set up for humans and this is a FREE Disc Golf Course so do keep your eye out for flying discs in first central loop area where the course is. There is a handy map at the front entrance which will indicate where this is. There are also washrooms throughout the first portion of the park. This trail can get slippery when wet, so do use caution. In the far West corner of the park is Garden Faire Campground, so be alert to stray dogs that might be staying in the campground.

At the peak be sure to stay behind the chained link fence that offers some safety from the sheer drop cliffs. Trailhead Two from Armand way has moderately difficult trails with some steep sections which pass through second growth Douglas fir trees. It climbs about 175 meters to the peak within an hour going up (less going down). The trails are marked with orange metal markers. Trailhead Three is at the Peak of Mt Maxwell. Head from the parking lot to the left for a nice picnic area and vista. To the right you will find a spectacular vista with bench and big boulders. Trails begin right off this vista. The sweeping views feature Burgoyne Bay, the Fulford-Burgoyne Valley to the San Juan island (USA) and over to Maple Bay on Vancouver Island.

Northview Nature Reserve – North West

Access: At the end of Northview Place is a lovely 17.8 acre trail through the Northview Nature Reserve. There is plenty of parking in the turn around. Dogs must be on leash as it a nature reserve and plants and wildlife are protected and possibly endangered.

Details: In the Eastern lower region of the reserve it is a typical Salt Spring forest mix of hardwoods and conifers. On the Western hilly portion there are Douglas firs and Alder stands. The hike through the entire trail system can be accomplished in 1.5 hours. The Salt Spring Island Conservancy is conducting studies to estimate the native populations of plants and animals (particularly birds) and to provide better refuge for sustaining and enhancing populations of native species. This land was an anonymous donation acquired in 2008 and we feel very fortunate for the work the SSIC does on our island and hope all pet owners will appreciate their efforts and walk with dogs on leash.

Ruckle Park – South East

Access: The best access for dog hikers/walkers is behind Beaver Point Hall. You can park easily, the trails you are accessing are dog friendly – as there are some that do not allow dogs anymore and that run along private livestock farms and the park sheep farm. It is best to avoid the main entrance at the end of Beaver Point road and park here and begin your hike instead. Look for the Trailhead across from the washrooms at the back of the hall. To the right you will see some heritage buildings (Beaver Point School House 1885) and a play ground. Head in this direction. The trail runs along side the school site, initially. If you go left – there is a short trail that ends suddenly.

Details: There is an extensive trail system in this Provincial Park. You can spend hours hiking through the salal, old growth forest, upon mossy boulders and rocks, around ponds and down through the ocean . You can hike all the way to Yeo Point or King's Cove within a few hours. Stay to the trails meandering left. You can see on the map at the trailhead that Trails 3 to 7 are the safest for dog walkers. They stay clear of the active park farm. Dogs are allowed in the campground, but they must be on lead at all times. Trails are clearly marked with orange trail markers and trail injunctions have maps. There are over 15 kilometres of trails in this park. The forest is a mix of Hemlock, Fir, cedar and moss covered maple trees. One of the most stunning trail systems on our island. And the beach areas are worth the hike.

Welbury Bay Trail - North East

Access: A few meters up Scott Point Drive past the Long Harbour terminal staging area, on the Right hand side as you come up the First hill you will see on your Right the sign for Welbury Bay Trail. You can park on the opposite side of the road by the driveway for Salt Spring Waterfront BnB. You will see a number of large rocks sprinkling the side road at the entrance of the Park. Although the park indicates dogs do not have to be leashed. We recommend the be leashed as you cross this busy road and head into the park. Once you are in and hiking it should be safe and fine for your pooch!

Details: Initially in the park you will come to a fork in the trail. If you go left the path will quickly lead you and your furry friend toward the ferry parking/staging area and potentially, if you don't have control over your dog, it can very quickly find itself in front of moving traffic. Thus, we do not recommend this part of the park. Instead head Right which leads you down to a very pleasant knoll over the ocean and if the tide is out, a nice beach scene. The waterfront is speckled with Arbutus trees and a couple of viewing points. There is a beautiful view of the Bay from the sitting bench on the vista. Remember the busy road is not far away at any given time in this 275 meter walk, so be sure to have good recall and your dogs under control at all times. This park is a great site for picnics, summertime swimming and just passing time before the ferry rolls in.
